Vegan Meat Cups

The Vegan Snacks from Bedda are Light and Easy to Digest

— February 19, 2016 — Lifestyle
A rise in health consciousness has opened up huge opportunities for plant-based food creators, especially those who specialize in vegan snacks.

The Bedda 'Vegan Fleischsalat' is a light vegan meat salad that's made with soy-free mock sausage meat. Because there is no actual meat in the product, the imitation sausages are extremely easy to digest, which will appeal to not only vegans, but those who have felt some of the repercussions of eating real meat in the past.

While there are now countless types of vegan meat products on the market, these tend to be designed and branded for meals like breakfast, lunch and dinner. In between, imitation meats have barely breached the vegan snacks category, but Bedda is proving itself to be a leader on this front.
Trend Themes
1. Plant-based Snacks - The rise in health consciousness has increased the demand for vegan snacks as an alternative to traditional meat snacks.
2. Soy-free Mock Meats - Soy allergies and health concerns have created a market opportunity for plant-based meat alternatives made without soy.
3. Digestible Meat Alternatives - The demand for meat alternatives that are easy to digest creates a market opportunity for producers to innovate in the vegan snacks category.
Industry Implications
1. Plant-based Food Industry - With the growing popularity of plant-based foods among health-conscious consumers, the plant-based food industry is poised for significant growth.
2. Allergy-friendly Food Industry - The need for allergen-free food products creates an opportunity for companies to create new product lines catering to those with food allergies and intolerances.
3. Convenience Food Industry - As consumers continue to prioritize convenience in their food choices, the vegan snack industry presents opportunities for companies to create ready-to-eat plant-based options.
